Beautifully arted issue. For starters that Jenny Frison cover is freaking gorgeous and unequivocally sexy. Then once inside all of the characters are fantastically done, emotion and beauty brought to life flawlessly, I was very impressed. All around a very attractive, very sexy issue.

There’s actually not much to say about this issue sneak wise as it’s primarily action packed setup. I will say that I really enjoyed how Spike was written this issue. His character felt very complete and I think I’ve enjoyed the flow of it more than the first two issues for this reason. I get the feeling this means very good things for issue four.

As for our new mystery lady and her stated intentions, I like her. Not certain the writing staff really plan to ship her and Spike, but the potential setup is there. Not sure how I feel on this as to me relationships should start on trust and we’ve all just met her, but as separate characters I’m enjoying them. -N
